Sweet Jane 61 1 Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 I have to say "Some Kind of Wonderful" is one teen movie I can watch more than once. John Hughes of couse pulling out another hit flic! The cast is great with Eric Stoltz, Lea Thompson, and Mary Stuart Masterson in the lead roles. Boy from the wrong side of the tracks likes the popular beautiful girl who is in hanging with the rich kids but she is from the wrong side of the tracks also. But then you have the tomboy best friend, Masterson, who is really in love with the boy but helps him get the popular girl. But of course he finally opens his eyes and sees the truly beautiful girl has always been there by his side. Hey how can you not identify with someone in this movie. And the soundtrack is not bad either, I mean it has the Stones on it singing "Miss Amanda Jones"!! Watch the film and look for Chynna Phillips and Candance Cameron. Also John Ashton from "Beverly Hills Cop" as the Dad is good. Link to post Share on other sites
Levis 6 Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Cool...someone else has actually heard of this movie... I have heard of it but I just haven't seen it and I really want to because it seems to have great music (i.e. Gin Blossoms among others) Link to post Share on other sites
Cheval Noir 0 Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Gregory's Girl is one of my all-time favourites. There's also the Aussie film The Year My Voice Broke, which is very much like Lucas. I really go for those quotidian situations and "dramedies". Link to post Share on other sites
Marcelona 0 Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Have you ever seen the movie "Heathers"? It is a bit twisted but hilarious. It came out in 1989 with Christian Slater, Shannon Doherty and Winona Ryder...The 1980's was the best for teen movies!!! Link to post Share on other sites

blind-fitter 0 Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 I suggest you see Cheval Noir's picks. He has good taste You're joking, aintcha? I remember Cheval Noir venturing a positive opinion of Kajagoogoo; without doubt the most repugnant pustular blemish that ever pulsated on the backside of pop. However, I agree with Mr. Noir's recommendation of Gregory's Girl here. Splendid film.* (* I never use the word "movie".) Link to post Share on other sites
miamisammy29 4 Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 (* I never use the word "movie".) Well, aren't we Mister Hoidy Toidy? Sorry, I couldn't resist. It's a quote from one of my favorite teen movies from the early 80's...."Making The Grade". Judd Nelson...what an actor! Link to post Share on other sites

night2day 0 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 I liked the movie, "Labyrinth." It starred Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie. It was a wonderful movie, IMO, that ushered appreciation by family members as well as the wonderful script directed by "Jim Henson"...the puppet's master! Soundtracks by Bowie were an added bonus!
